NUT TREES
- SWEET CHESTNUT
Very ornamental with serrated leaves. Long slender catkins. The sweet Chestnut - large leaves when fully grown. Long lived trees, suitable for any soils except those with poor drainage.
MARAVAL
Despite their delicious eating properties famed for centuries through popular song and folklore, Sweet Chestnuts have remained a Tree grown by few. This is probably because they traditionally take several years to mature to fruiting age. This unique new french variety is the answer, for it has cropped on only 2 year old container grown trees in the Nursery! A tempting proposition for all, these are handsome trees with glossy deeply serrated foliage, bristly fruiting clusters, golden amber Autumn colour - and bags of character! Now you can have your own delicious crop too! There is no reason why they should not be container grown in, say a nice 18” pot or larger. Stock genuinely limited. Price £23.50
SATIVA
Fast growing tree that makes a splendid specimen. Warm summers produce the Chestnuts. The glossy leaves are strongly toothed: long pale yellow catkins in July. £17.95
MARRON DE LYON
The best fruiting clone, producing nuts at a young age. £21.95.
